Dark pregnancy test all day?

Got my BFP last week on Wednesday, 8dpo. I've tested every day since, FMU and then an afternoon one for reassurance and they have got steadily darker until the day my period was due (yesterday) when they are now as dark as the control line but all day, even in the afternoon with slightly more dilute urine.

CB digital on Saturday confirmed 1-2 weeks.

Basically my question is, is this normal, or even..a good sign? I've got a scan next week at 5.5 due to a condition I have and I'm really worried I'll miscarry/the foetus won't have developed. Was a long struggle TTC which doesn't help with the anxiety!

Thank you

Sounds completely normal.

Very normal don’t worry . Mine was darker than the control like when I did a FRER on the day of my missed period , it actually took the pink dye from the control like and made the test like double the colour ! Just means your HcG is high which is good . Congrats 🥳

Stop wasting your money on tests 😂

Lots can happen between now and when baby is in your arms but one step at a time. BFP is this step, accept it and move forward to your first appointment. X
